IBER OPTIC CABLE
F
The FiberSource male adaptor for 50 - 300 strand cables, P/N 91611016 (not
included), is tapered to fit fiber optic cables 8.3 - 19.3 mm (5/16 - 3/4 in.) in
diameter. With cables over 8.3 mm in diameter, the adaptor must be shortened for
proper fit and maximum light output. Please follow the instructions included with
the fiber adaptor.
CABLE CONNECTION
The following guidelines provi de a starting point for estimating your needs. Light
transmission through fiber-optic cable depends on its quality and results will vary
depending on the type of cable used.
5
SIDE-EMITTING CABLE
With 1 fixture, best results are had when the fiber optic cable is 10 m (33 ft.) or
shorter. The length may be increased to 15 m (50 ft.) by looping the cable and
illuminating both ends. With 2 fixtures, one at each end of the cable, lengths up to
30 m (100 ft.) can be achieved.
END-EMITTING CABLE
Light output de creases with length: keep the ca ble as short as possible. Th e
maximum recommende d length is 25 meters. Cut the ligh t emitting end of the f i bers
with a sharp knife for maximum output.
To install fiber optic cable
1 Install the cable in the fiber adaptor according to the instructions packaged
with the adaptor.
2 Insert the adaptor fully into the fiber optic cable socket.
3 Tighten the set screw with a 2 mm (5/64 in.) Allen wrench.

ONTROLLER OPERATION
C
This Fibe rSource QFX 150 ma y be operated wi th any DMX-512 protoc ol

DATA CONNECTION
A reliable data connection begins with the right cable. Standard microphone cable
cannot transmit DMX data reliably over long runs. For best results, use cable
specifically designed for RS-485 applications. Your Martin dealer can supply high
quality cable in various lengths.
The FiberSource QFX 150’s data sockets are wired pin 1 to ground, pin 2 to signal (cold), an d pin 3 to signal + (ho t). Thi s is the stan dard pi n assignme nt for DMX
devices.

CONTROLLABLE EFFECTS
LAMP POWER AND RESET
The lamp on command is on channel 1, the address channel.
controller operation, the lamp remains off until a lamp-on command is sent.
A peak of electric current many times the operating current is drawn briefl y when
striking a lamp. Striking many discharge lamps at once may cause a voltage drop
that prevents lamps from striking or trips circuit breakers. When striking multiple
fixtures, space lamp on comman ds at 5 second intervals.
The lamp can be turned off as well, but then it must be allowed to cool for several
minutes before it can be turned back on. To prevent acc idental lamp off commands,
this command only works when the dimmer is closed (ch. 2 < 3) and the twinkle
effect is rotating s lowly CCW (ch. 4 > 252). If a hot lamp does not strike, send the
lamp off command and wait several minutes before trying again.
All effects reset to their home position s when the fixture i s powered up. There is
also a reset command on channel 1. To prevent accidental resets, the command must
be sent for 5 seconds.
When set up for
DIMMER
The intensity of the light is controlled from full-off to full-on on channel 2.
COLOR
The color wheel is control led o n channel 3 . You can program split-color effects with
continuous scroll, stick to full color posi tions usi ng stepped scroll, and rotate the
wheel continuously. The speed at which colors fade from one position to another
can be controlled on channel 5, the speed channel.
TWINKLE
The speed and direction of the twinkle effect is controlled on channel 4. When
stopped, the effect wheel returns to its hom e position where t here is a removable
section. The light output can be made more uniform if the twinkle effect is not used
by removing this section.
FADE SPEED
Channel 5 controls the speed of the color wheel, allowing you to achieve variable
fades on controller s without cross-faders. If your control ler has cross-faders, an d
you use them, then set channel 5 to 0 (tracking), for best results.
Controller operation 15

TAND-ALONE OPERATION
S
CONTROL OPTIONS
The FiberSource QFX 150 can be opera ted without a controller in stand-alone
mode. This mode provides various combinations of color and twinkle effect that are
selected usin g DIP-switch pins 1 - 7.
The twinkle effect may by set to off, slow, medium , or fast usi n g DIP-s w itc h pins 1
and 2. If the twinkle effect is not required, a section o f the effect wheel can be
removed to increase the uniformity of the output: refer t o “To remove or replace the
twinkle wheel section” on page 19.
The speed at which the color wheel moves from one color to the next may be set to
snap, slow, medium, or fast using DIP-switch pins 3 and 4. This setting has no effect
if white or color 1 is selected.
7
The color or colors are selected using DIP-switch pins 5, 6, and 7. You can select
white, color 1 (position 1), a range of colors, and continuous rotation. If continuous
color wheel rotation is selected, then the color change speed must be slow, medium,
or fast.
If a range of colors is selected, the color wheel holds at pos ition 1 for 1 second,
moves to position 2 at the selected change speed, holds for 1 second, and so on.
When the last p ositi on is reached, th e colo r wheel reverses direction. Col ors can be
arranged in any order as described under “To change color filters” on page 19.
To set stand-alone behavior
1 Disconnect the fixture from power.
2 Set DIP-switch pins 1 - 7 on or off as shown in the table below to achieve the
desired combination of effects.
3 Set pins 8 and 9 to off. Set pin 10 to on.
4 Apply power to the fixture.
The option setting wi ll take effect and the lamp will automatically strike. Note,
howeve r, that a hot lamp must cool for several minutes before it can be restruck. If
the lamp does not strike, disconnect the fixture from power for several minutes to
reduce strain on the starter while the lamp cools.

ASTER/SLAVE OPERATION
M
Several FiberSource QFX 150s may be connected together for synchronous
operation without a controller. They are connected together and one, the maste r, is
set up in stand-alone mode and sends cont rol instructio ns to the others. Up t o 32
fixtures can be can be connected and operated this way.
Impor tant Verify that al l slave fixture s are set as des cribed. Damag e can
be caus ed if t here is more than 1 device (ma ster f ixture or
controller) sendin g cont rol signal s on the seri al data link.

To connect and set fixtures for master/slave operation
1 Disconnect all fixtures from power.
2 Plug a 3-pin XLR data cable into the OUT socket of the first fixture and the IN
socket of the next fixture.
3 Continue connecting fixtures output to input. Up to 32 FiberSource QFX 150s
may be connected.
4 Terminate the data link on
both ends. Insert a female
termination plug (P/N
91613018) into the IN socket
of the first fixture . Insert a
male termination plug (P/N
91613017) into the OUT
socket of the last fixture. A
termination plug is an XLR
connector with a 120 ohm,
0.25 W resistor soldered
across pins 2 and 3.
5 Select any one fixture to be the master. Set the desired stand-alone options
using the master’s DIP-switch as described on page 16.
6 On all other fixtures (slaves), set DIP-switch pin 1 to the ON position; set all
other DIP-switch pins to the OFF position.
